    i bought minecraft on my pc and it said nothing about needing a xbox console till after it...


    i went to the minecraft website to install the game on my pc. i pull up the website nd one of the first things i see is "minecraft for windows 10/11". so i believe i am in the right place.

    so i spent about 45 minuets converting and setting up a new microsoft account for my pc so i could play minecraft.

    i finally get to the part where i have to buy the game and everything is still saying pc and microsoft. i put in all my payment information and everything looks good.

    then i go to install and its saying that i dont have an eligible devise. this is odd to me because up until this point everything is sounding like it is a microsoft download for pc.

    once it said it couldn't download it asks if i wanna look at the store page. i go to the page and NOW it is telling me that i NEED an Xbox console to download minecraft to???

    Why didnt it warn me of this sooner? i dont own an xbox, and im on a pc so why was it the only purchase option?

    i try following the instructions on how to get a refund but then it tells me that this product isnt eligible for a refund.

    i need to speak with someone right now.

    i need a refund or for microsoft to send me an xbox cause this is outrageous that this even can happen and im sure im not the first person this has happened to.

    also, its almost impossible to reach support for this and it just sends you to this discussion bored so i better her from someone soon

    :)

    xbox live and minecrfaft windows 10

    You don't need Gold to play online on PC. You said you bought the game on the console, but have you bought the PC version? Minecraft is not a Play Anywhere title so you don't get the PC version just for owning it on the console.

    When daliblo 3 post come to the 360?

    Listen kids if they want to bring it to the consoles they will its all about the money. Look at Minecraft. look how big it is and Microsoft said
    [Mod Removed] PC and bought the whole company just to bring it to Xbox 360.and they have more updates coming to the Xbox 360 version and Microsoft said there not worried about the PC version no more

    Minecraft for Kinect.

    [quote user="Fullmetal1986"]

    [quote user=""]Considering it was announced as "Minecraft for Kinect", I would say that it was originally planned as a Kinect title. If it wasn't, it was extremely misleading. [/quote]They didn't announce it as that. They announced it as just,
    "Minecraft." Nothing extra or any "Xbox 360 Edition" subtitle. After they announced it, they said it would support Kinect and cross-platform play with the PC version.

    [/quote]

    On stage during the announcement. "And this year you will be able to experience the infinite possibilities of Minecraft combined with the magic of Kinect. We are thrilled to announce that Minecraft is making its console debut this winter exclusively on Xbox
    360 and Kinect." and the "Kinect for Xbox 360" banners are floating around the Minecraft screenshot.

    .

    Yeah...they never said anything about it Kinect title. They announced it AS a Kinect title. Stating it would be released in 2011 on Xbox 360 AND Kinect. It didn't release in 2011 and it didn't release on Kinect(yet) and wasn't revealed that Kinect support
    wouldn't ship with the game till a few months after it was announced.
